We had 7 short course trucks regularly running indoors last winter over a big jump track, 6 were Strikes and 1 was an Associated SC10.

The only one running by the end of March was the AE SC10. Each of the Strikes had gone through 3 or 4 diffs together with numerous drive shafts and turnbuckles. So much so that there were no diffs left in the country so they all ended up on stop.

The weak point on the AE SC10 seems to be the front wishbones but they are easily sorted by changing to the beefed up RPM replacement parts and are sorted.

I know the difference is £90 initially but just watching the frustration the Strike runners endured and the cost of all the spares just to keep running they soon worked out more expensive.

One other thing..... the standard tyres that come with the AE SC10 last for ever and seem to work well on all surfaces.
